Despite only having one chapter released, the Kagurabachi manga has already become the talk of the town. This demonstrates the current hunger of anime and manga viewers for new series.
Takeru Hokazono’s manga, which portrays an unnamed swordsman, has already surpassed Black Clover and Spy X Family, two industry heavyweights, on Shueisha’s MangaPLUS’ “hot list.”
The first chapter of the manga blew manga lovers away, well beyond their expectations. It’s evident that fans can’t wait for the second part of this fantastic narrative, and we are here to cover it all.
1. Chapter 2 Raw Scans and Leaks
The leaks for the next chapter of Kagurabachi reveal the past of Chihiro and how he got the scar on his face. It was shown that one day when Shiba came to visit Chihiro and his dad he saw that the barrier was broken.
He rushes to them and sees Chihiro covered in blood and his dad lying dead on the ground. Shiba asks Chihiro what happened, and he tells him that a group of Necromancers attacked them and stole the swords.
Chihiro breaks down in front of Shiba as he swears in the name of his family that he will take revenge on them.
The leaks also suggest that the swords that his father created are being abused by the people to whom those swords do not belong.
Also, we found the true motivation of Chihiro, as he wants to retrieve all the swords made by the people who are abusing them. In the end, Shiba called out to Chihiro, as they had a clue as to where those Yakuza were hiding.

3. Chapter 2 Discussion
In the next chapter, Kagurabachi, we may see Chihiro going to the group of sorcerers, also known as Hishaku, as well as the scar on his face, which is still a big mystery.
The manga just dropped and is unstable. There are a lot of gaps here and there, but I think we should give this amazing manga some time as it deepens its roots.
It is still unknown what happened to Chihro and why he is a swordsman and not a swordsmith, but we will have to wait for that to be known.
4. Chapter 1 Recap
Chapter 1 of Kagurabachi, titled ‘Mission,’ starts with Chihiro and his dad Kunishige, who makes special katanas with his own unique methods.
Chihiro is following in his footsteps so that he can become a great swordsmith just like him. Later on, as both father and son are working on the swords, we see a new character.
The man who greets them is Shiba, an old friend of Chihiro’s dad, and he sometimes visits from the town. As we see our three characters talking and chatting, we see Shiba getting ready to leave.
Then we see Kunishige and Chihro having cover stations as Chihiro is turning 15 soon. He would like to show Chihiro the truth about forging swords and the consequences a swordsmith has to bear with it.
He tells Chihiro that a swordsmith should have principles and accountability. Chihiro replies that he is ready to take on this responsibility. Then the chapter cuts to the present.
In the present, we see some criminals killing people and torturing a young man as they were revolting against the criminals. The young man says that the city was peaceful before Korogumi rats came to the city.
After that, we meet the yakuza boss of Korogumi, and it is revealed that he is one of the bad sorcerers. Later, we finally saw Chihiro all grown up, with a scar on his face, and Shiba calling out to him.
Shiba asks him why he doesn’t try to heal or cover this scar, to which Chihiro replies that whenever he wakes up, he is reminded that he wakes up every day with new hatred.
When they reach the town, Chihiro sees what the Yakuza are doing to the people there and immediately asks Shiba to lead him to them, and then we see Chihiro in action, just brutally killing everyone.
It is revealed that the sword Chihiro uses is also imbued with sorcery, and we see him taking out everyone with just one slash. Later, Chihiro asks the criminal about Hishaku, the group of sorcerers.
